One big project!

So I would like to welcome you to the project that has been our basement...

As you can see, we have been very organized while working downstairs. We actually forgot to move a lot of things while Zac was sanding and so I have a lot of dusting to do when we get to that point.

First, we worked on the downstairs bedroom...this included tearing out a wall, re-framing, adding outlets, texturing, painting and hopefully soon carpet. Then, we will have a nice guest room for family and friends when they come to visit.




Believe it or not, this is the same room. This was right after we painted. We still have yet to schedule our carpet to go in, but we are getting closer.

The next room we have been working on is the main basement room. This room never had paint, and was origionally used as a large pantry. We thought we would use it as a nice downstairs living room. (Plus it's an extra room for visitors if we have a family get together or something).

These two pictures (above) were taken right after we did texture in that room. I have an amazing husband that I think did a great job texturing. I really like the way it turned out.

Next, we worked on the hallway. This included taking out multiple doors and replacing them, texture and paint and then laminate, which you can see below.

The final step is carpet, which goes in this week! I am so excited to be able to use the basement again. I am going through every box and paper in my house and de-junking. I will post more pictures when we are all done. What a project!!!!
